While I'm fairly dubious about the proposed dual-purpose structural implementation of this material -- if this works at scale it would be a boon for low cost DIY local energy storage in the developing world and remote areas in other places.
The idea that someone with minimal education/training can construct a durable electrical storage solution using commonly available materials and techniques is an absolute game changer!!
